Chapter 168 Donate One Cent for Every Cup Sold!

Xiao Yunzhou's words stunned the cabinet's Fu Cha, the Ministry of Revenue, and the Imperial Kitchen.

"Royal... milk tea shop?"

They understood every word.

But put them together, they couldn't understand a bit.

"The emperor wants to do business? Officials don't compete with the people for profit, let alone the emperor?" Fu Cha was the first to object.

Xiao Yunzhou waved his hand, that was already old news.

Who said the royal family can't do business.

"What do you mean I compete with the people for profit?"

"My Jingguo money bank, my official salt, are they competing for profit?"

Fu Cha was stunned by the question.

Xiao Yunzhou shrugged, "You can't think of it, I thought of it, I can only lead some people to get rich first."

"!"

"..."

The entire Imperial Study was silent because of Xiao Yunzhou's pretentious words.

Now Jingguo is different from before - the emperor, Xiao Yunzhou, has understood what commodity economy is.

"Only by making money make money can the people of Jingguo become rich!"

"I ate those 500 cattle and sheep, and you ate them, but the people didn't get a penny. This is called competing with the people for profit!"

"I let them make money to make the people rich, do you understand?"

Xiao Yunzhou is now very reasonable, and he is not soft-hearted when he teaches the cabinet Fu Cha.

"So, Your Majesty, this milk tea..." When Jiang Li, the Minister of Revenue, heard about making money, his eyes were already shining.

Soon Xiao Yunzhou asked Wei Zheng to prepare something for them to taste in person.

"This is the delicious snack that the little princess found while playing."

"It's just the beginning of spring, and fruits are scarce. Only the palace has some tribute." Xiao Yunzhou said and looked at Jiang Li, "But spring is coming soon, let fruit farmers in various places increase high-quality production as soon as possible. Those nearby can send fresh fruits to the capital, and those far away can open fruit tea shops locally."

The Ministry of Revenue Jiang Li drooled when he heard it, "Great, great!"

The cattle and sheep transported by Wu Yunguo are useful, and the milk they produce is used for milk tea.

Then, it drives the tea merchants, tea farmers, fruit farmers, and fruit merchants of Jingguo to get rich together!

How can this be a simple snack shop?

"The milk tea shop that the little princess came up with directly revitalized the lives of the four groups of tea merchants, tea farmers, fruit farmers, and fruit merchants in Jingguo!"

There may also be porters and peddlers who transport tea, vegetables and fruits to Beijing. If they plan well, a small cup of milk tea can feed countless people.

"Little Princess is really smart." Jiang Li flattered willingly.

Fu Cha's mouth twitched when he heard it.

Xiao Yunzhou was very proud and nodded, "Isn't it? She just pushed Minpin's spoon and made milk tea, hehe."

As he said that, he looked at the steward of the imperial kitchen.

The steward Liao of the imperial kitchen blushed immediately, "The servant is incompetent..."

"That's what you said, but I know you are very dissatisfied." Xiao Yunzhou stood up and approached, "Well, I have another task for you."

"On the way back to the palace from the guard post in the suburbs of Beijing, I heard a commoner talking about pancakes and fried dough sticks."

Xiao Yunzhou thought about what the little princess wanted to eat.

Milk tea is available.

Roast duck is available.

They all taste very good, and the pancakes and fried dough sticks must be good too.

"The latter is like fried dough, and the former is like something wrapped in a pancake."

"There is also tofu pudding. It is said that when it is scooped out hot, it is like a piece of snow. It has two flavors, salty and sweet. You can also study it."

Xiao Yunzhou said, and imagined.

This tofu pudding can be eaten by the little princess without teeth.

The elderly and children among the people must also like it.

I can open a royal breakfast shop in the future...

"Imperial Kitchen, you should make it as soon as possible, let me see your ability."

General Manager Liao was sweating and his back was stiff.

Fried dough sticks?

Where is this food!

How come he has never heard of it.

But the emperor said there is, he has to do it!

"The slave will study it as soon as possible and not let the emperor down."

Xiao Yunzhou hummed, and finally looked up at the cabinet and the Ministry of Revenue.

"This milk tea shop was the idea of ​​the little princess. You adults can't compete with children for credit. When the milk tea shop makes a profit in the future, how much do you think should be given to the little princess?"

"???"

"!"

...

Opening a milk tea shop is much easier than opening a bank in Jingguo. It does not require too many complicated techniques.

The imperial kitchen sent a master who is good at tea and snacks to ask about the taste of the milk tea of ​​Concubine Liu and Concubine Min that day. He had a rough idea in mind and improved the ratio of milk, various teas and sugar, and determined more than a dozen small ingredients that can be added.

The names of several milk teas were also given by Shen Mian, the second assistant of the cabinet, who was the top scholar of that year.

Soon, the capital of Jingguo opened quietly overnight.

At the same time, next to the milk tea shop, a breakfast shop with the size of the imperial character was opened.

For a moment, the people in the capital of Jingguo were dumbfounded.

"Royal milk tea shop?"

"Imperial breakfast shop?"

What is this?

The emperor has also started doing business?

But soon, the faces of the common people were not angry but happy.

A red list was posted outside the milk tea shop, and the Ministry of Households still sent someone to explain it.

"Dear uncles and aunts, young talents..."

"The royal milk tea shop uses a batch of cow and goat milk that Wu Yunguo Khan has recently sent to Jingguo."

Everyone understood as soon as they heard it. This is a tribute, and the emperor took it out to share with them!

The emperor is kind!

The people all smiled.

But the official at the door hadn't finished speaking, "And the tea used in this milk tea is produced by tea farmers in Liangcheng and Mingshan areas, whose families are poor and whose tea sales were not good last year. The emperor has seen the hardships of tea farmers. In order to improve their lives, the court purchased in large quantities and opened this milk tea shop to provide tea farmers with a guarantee in the future."

When the people in Beijing heard this, they were stunned.

The surrounding farmers who came to the city to attend the market were even more unable to move.

"What? Tea farmers can't sell their tea, but the emperor has bought it? The emperor has bought it all?"

"Is there such a good thing?"

"What if we can't sell our vegetables later?"

"We have a lot of cabbages!"

The official from the Ministry of Revenue at the door of the milk tea shop was so amused that he looked at the old man carrying two loads of cabbage and said, "Don't worry, brother."

"Now we are tea farmers, and we will be other people in the future."

"The emperor will definitely find a way to make sure everyone has food to eat and money to make!"

[Oh, Uncle Jiang Li is really good at doing things. The person arranged at the door of the milk tea shop is so good at talking. ]

Xiao Chuchu was carried out by Xiao Yunzhou again and went on a secret visit.

Sure enough, as soon as she thought of this, the people and farmers in front of the milk tea shop who were not very accepting of the emperor selling things were all excited.

"Then we'll wait!"

"After the tea farmers, remember to ask the emperor to arrange cabbage for us."

"Oh, then we have to support this milk tea."

Some of the people in Beijing who are relatively wealthy are ready to pay to try.

The official at the door of the milk tea shop smiled gently, pointed to the red list at the door of the shop, and said,

"From now on, for every cup of milk tea sold in this milk tea shop, the court will take out a penny to subsidize local tea farmers to cultivate tea with better color, fragrance and taste."

"In the future, every month, we will announce the amount of funding and where the money goes."

"!"

"!!"

The people and farmers were all stunned.

Even a pair of "beautiful and talented men" and a little maid who passed by stopped in amazement and looked shocked.

In the opera, there have always been corrupt officials who covet the people's money and rice.

When will the court take the initiative to pay out money, fall on a person's head, and publicize it to the people? !

[Hehe, this is modern charity~]

Xiao Chuchu nodded repeatedly.

[Eh, the system said that the collection progress of the Chu Kingdom sisters has increased by 4%? ]

Xiao Yunzhou raised his head suddenly and looked around.
